Biotechnology, Nanotechnology, and Artificial Intelligence will allow us to become what philosopher David Pearce calls: 'Paradise Engineers'<br /> <br /> Tomorrow, collaboration between biologists, electrical engineers and designers, a hitherto inconceivable proposition, will be something we take for granted.<br /> <br /> Featuring interviews with the world's most interesting minds, these luminaries will paint for us a picture of the world beyond the looking glass. The world we are creating.<br /> <br /> "We are as gods," says Stewart Brand, "and we might as well get good at it."<br /> ______________________<br /> <br /> Film Concept by Jason Silva<br /> Concept teaser edited by Jason Silva and Sean Puglisi<br /> <br /> * The teaser Features soundbites from some TED Talks and a 'Tedify' tribute by Maria Popova.. as well as other miscellaneous clips.
